A STRONG entry of cattle in every category meant there was something for everybody and with more than 160 active buyers across three rings, all classes sold well as Harrison and Hetherington's special May show and sale of store cattle.

In charge of judging was Yorkshireman Ben Winn, who selected a Limousin heifer from Messrs Murray, The Throp, which later sold for £1250.

Trade reached £1355 for a Limousin cross heifer from Messrs Atkinson, Hawkrigg, while bullocks reached £1335 for a Limmy cross from Messrs Todd, Longhurst, with dairy sorts to £1060 for a pair of Montbeliarde crosses from Messrs Magnay, Greenwrae.
